手紙 ~拝啓 十五の君へ~
拝啓     この手紙読んでいるあなたは     どこで何をしているのだろう

十五の僕には誰にも話せない     悩みの種があるのです

未来の自分に宛てて書く手紙なら
きっと素直に打ち明けられるだろう

今     負けそうで     泣きそうで     消えてしまいそうな僕は
誰の言葉を信じ歩けばいいの?
ひとつしかないこの胸が何度もばらばらに割れて
苦しい中で今を生きている
今を生きている

拝啓     ありがとう     十五のあなたに伝えたい事があるのです

自分とは何でどこへ向かうべきか     問い続ければ見えてくる

荒れた青春の海は厳しいけれど
明日の岸辺へと     夢の舟よ進め

今     負けないで     泣かないで     消えてしまいそうな時は
自分の声を信じ歩けばいいの
大人の僕も傷ついて眠れない夜はあるけど
苦くて甘い今を生きている

人生の全てに意味があるから     恐れずにあなたの夢を育てて
Keep on believing

負けそうで     泣きそうで     消えてしまいそうな僕は
誰の言葉を信じ歩けばいいの?
ああ     負けないで     泣かないで     消えてしまいそうな時は
自分の声を信じ歩けばいいの
いつの時代も悲しみを避けては通れないけれど
笑顔を見せて     今を生きていこう
今を生きていこう

拝啓     この手紙読んでいるあなたが
幸せな事を願います

A Letter~to You, Fifteen Years Old~
Dear you, reading this letter, what are you doing, and where?

There are seeds of worry I can't tell anyone in the fifteen-year-old me.

If I could write a letter to the future me,
I could be honest and frank, I think.

Right now, I feel like I'm going to lose, like I'm going to cry, like I'm about to disappear.
Who should I listen to and follow?
My one heart has become broken up in different directions so many times,
In this difficulty, I am living.
I am living.

Dear fifteen-year-old you, thank you, there's something I want to tell you.

If you're wondering where to go and how, just keep asking, and you'll find out.

The sea of youth is stormy and hard,
But take your ship of dreams to tomorrow's shore.

Don't lose, don't cry, and when you feel you're about to disappear,
Just listen to and follow your own voice.
There are times when I, an adult, get hurt and have sleepless nights,
But in the bittersweetness, I am living.

There's a reason for everything in life, so raise your dreams without fear,
Keep on believing.

Right now, I feel like I'm going to lose, like I'm going to cry, like I'm about to disappear.
Who should I listen to and follow?
Ah, don't lose, don't cry, and when you feel you're about to disappear,
Just listen to and follow your own voice.
You can never avoid sadness in any era,
But just smile and live now.
Live now.

Dear you reading this letter,
I wish for your happiness.
